Whether it was leaked by accident or set to go live early this morning, E3 2015 news never sleeps. Rock Band 4 will launch on October 6th, according to an Amazon US listing of a full “Band-in-a-box peripheral bundle set. Heading to the PS4 and Xbox One, the bundle comes with a drum set, guitar, USB mic, footpedal, drumming accessories and a guitar stra, with an MSRP of $249.99 USD.
Harmonix, best known for their work on the Rock Band franchise, has announced that they're becoming a part of the Epic Games family.
I don't get how people complained that Valve never released any games for years as an argument when defending Epic, and here's Epic just constantly revolving around one game, producing nothing else and trying desperately to keep retention on it by having over the top crossovers to stay in the news and social media. At least Valve knows how to make games instead of lucky shots.
It will never die sadly
If I have to be super blunt...there's too many idiots who buy into it.
I shit you not, I have someone on Twitter, a "friend" if you will, constantly complaining about needing money for gas, electric and to basically live, then when something Fortnite related comes out he then asks for money to buy the next Fortnite skins/pack. I mean who the f*** does that? "I need money to survive but if someone Fortnite related comes out I'll buy that instead rather than saving the left over money". The developers of this game must be laughing themselves all away to the bank.
I just think it's amazing how most of us as kids jumped from game to game, a variety of genres and experiences while today it's literally just COD, Fortnite, Fifa etc.
@Rachel: How have Epic had lucky shots? You don't create a great game by being lucky you create them by being talented. I don't care for Fortnite, not my kind of game, but talent is talent. They made great games before Fortnite too you know.
@Rachel
As someone who is far from a fan of Epic anymore ... was Gears, Unreal, and Unreal Tournament nothing more than lucky shots as well?

They had almost 8 years of failures after Gears 3. They had failed to gauge any interest in IPs like Paragon and that Unreal Alpha they barely touched. Finally released Fortnite, but then they spent 3 months making a copy of a popular game at the time which was PUBG that everyone wanted to play. The problem was Pubg required expensive PC hardware and it was $30. But here comes fortnite with a free 2 play version, and all on console. It was the perfect chance to eat up what PUBG failed to do. They just got a lucky chance and seized it, that's it. It's no wonder they immediately canceled all their current projects including pushing STW off the focus over time to push their BR mode the game wasn't originally designed around. There entire company is built up all around Fortnite, but rather then make new games that bring in that same revenue, they would rather just buy up other companies and market share because I believe Tim doesn't trust his companies ability to produce another hit like Fortnite. If they are so talented then why do they not trust themselves to make new games with that great talent? At least Valve tries developing new games even with Steam protecting their revenue.
Looks like some great stuff here. Mad Catz Global Limited, the leading innovators in gaming hardware, are excited to announce a new gaming mouse, the B.A.T. 6+. Combining the elements of fast and powerful design, the truly ambidextrous gaming mouse offers the ultimate customizability and comfort, allowing every gamer to swap the side skirts as well.
The Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E 4 is a comfortable and responsive mechanical keyboard
There is far too many games coming out, i also need to get myself an Xbox One, i guess some games will just have to wait.
I was prepared to pay $299 for it so $249 seem more than reasonable for the complete bundle.
$249 seems to much for the whole set.
It will be interesting to see the longevity of the plastic music instrument genre. I'm pretty sure it won't have the same impact as the 1st run.
YAY! Getting it day one!
You'd do better getting a $200 guitar and a copy of rocksmith
